I have a question regarding full node (wallet). Does it store the whole DAG data or part thereof? I mean if the data chain grows with time does running full node requires ever more data storage (like in Bitcoin)?
It is possible to select during the installation what kind of wallet you want to use: light or full wallet. If you do not want to sync yourself, you can use the light wallet.

Help. I can see the byteball of my wallet address on explorer.byteball.org, but I cannot get it on the byteball client.

what's wrong with my wallet.  The 0.7.1 version client tips "no byteball prefix".

Thank you !


You need version 1.0.0

Thank you! But how can I upgrade to version 1.0.0  with the previous wallet?
Make first the backup of your wallet

https://github.com/byteball/byteball#byteball-backups-and-recovery

Byteball Backups and Recovery

macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/byteball
Linux: ~/.config/byteball
Windows: %LOCALAPPDATA%\byteball

Then install the latest version

I can't understand one thing: has the TestNet bytes been distributed or the official net ones?

The official live net Byteballs have been distributed.

So what should I do with the testnet byteballs that the faucet has emitted??? Pretty useless I'd say.
its just test byteballs only for testing. I found it very helpful to test the platform.

Deposits are enabled

Okay, thx for the reply. I created an account, checked the deposit address, fouund only a QR code, can you add the address in plain text please? Anyway, with my phone (empty balance), I scanned it, I got this error:

Code:
no byteball prefix

Exchange is quite young, we are live since 2 months, but based on Bitmaszyna.pl engine. Bitmaszyna.pl works more than two years in Poland without any problems.

Thx for the info.

Thanks.

Byteball or blackbytes is trading on cryptox.pl?

Only GB (GigaBytes) for now. It would be quite troublesome to trade blackbytes as devices will need to be paired, but it's possible I guess. If every trader as a pairing code, they could pair and send blackbytes directly from their device.

Community we desperately need some exchanges to trade our Bytes, please submit a coin request to Poloniex.

https://poloniex.com/coinRequest

 Cool

Free submissions take longer and there are many to go through.  Why dont the community get together and pay for submission.  Im sure that will get the exchange to rolling.

Cryptox.pl has started, all users get GBYTE according to their BTC balance at snapshot time in full 100%.
We've decided to pay in full, as there wasn't rush with BTC depos.
To get GBYTE, go to My account->BMCodes and click Use.

Anyone here having experience with cryptox.pl? Any reason/guarantee to encourage traders to go there?

By the way grzem, are GB deposits enabled? Thx.

how can I see, if the wallet is fully synced?

When you launch it, it shows syncing progress. If it doesn't, then it's synced (or not up-to-date).

I can see my byteballs in the explorer, but not in my wallet. there should not be a problem, if the wallet generated a new address in the meantime hopefully (without me clicking on "create new address").

Do you have the latest release? v1.0.0 (check the link in my previous post). A majority (if not all) of balance-not-showing problems seems to be related to not running the latest release.



So anyone else here didn't get their Byteballs???

If you didn't get them then something was probably not done properly ...

- Do you ....


All the checks listed above are meaningless because the white-bytes did arrive as expected.

Yes they are, blackbyte-wise Wink. I was answering ja23 question which seems to be about bytes (as far as I understand), I gave them what they should check to understand why they didn't receive bytes, I did neither mean that bytes weren't distributed nor that the checkings were meant to understand why you didn't get blackbytes Wink.

Hi @tonych

I have two wallets on my mac, that I use interchangeably by replacing "byteball" directory in the Application Support.

The first wallet received both bytes and blackbytes, while the second got only bytes.

Is it related to the p2p method of sending blackbytes? Is there any way around it (for example changing IP, or running wallet on a different machine)?

Thank you in advance.

You might have messed by replacing the dir.  PM me your BB addresses and device addtesses (Menu -> settings -> device address)

I am reading the white paper:
Quote
If two transactions try to spend the same output (double-spend) and there is no partial
order between them, both are allowed into the database but only the one that comes
earlier in the total order is deemed valid.

Do you remove the invalid transaction from the DAG tree? Or just leave it and mark it as "invalid"? How the tx that cover the invalid one gets re-org'd?

The invalid tx stays in the DAG but is marked as invalid and most of its data is removed.  Thanks to that, the txs that cover the invalid are not affected in any way.

Clearly some accounts did not receive the blackbytes. I have one of them.

Hopefully tonych will sort it out eventually.

There is no toggle switch on my GUI to switch to blackbytes. I tried both 32bit and 64bit windows version. Pretty sure im at 1.0.0

As long as your blackbytes did not get distributed, you won't see any toggle, you'll be able to switch between the two once your blackbytes reach your address.

I restored my localappdata folder from a backup btw.

I don't think that this could have any effect.

The Bytes balance IS correct btw

Do you mean that you got exactly what you expected using the distribution rate? Cuz I didn't, I assumed some of them were used as witness fees ... To be precise, there's a 1.0013 ratio between what the rate gives and what I got.

LOL what you looking at?
I contacted Sasha Ivanov, founder of Waves, about the linked address 1NGfrU4YNp8dox1gLeUDyjD5Vpfck9no5j that has 4800 BTC from Waves ICO.  His response was that if the project is successful, he is going to distribute our coin as dividend to Waves holders.
So, even the largest (so far) whale in our distribution is a kind of collective investment entity.

Could it become a potential threat for the Byteball system if the parties like Waves and Lisk and others will hold 10% of byteball for a fairly long time and won't distribute the coins to their investors, especially when they are in competition with Byteball? It may be not a bad idea to block their BTC addresses for the next distribution round if they don't distribute their coins from this round to their investors before the next round.

This is not a bad idea to block all ICO funds from getting Byteballs, as they are in the competition and it's not going to help us in anyway, unless they agree some sort of collaboration.

Maybe the right way is to actually cap the max amount of Byteballs given to any address.
If an address contains more than 1 BTC, in example, just give 1 BTC of Byteballs.
If the objective is to DISTRIBUTE Byteballs, you want this to happen this way, not to give immense quantities of Byteballs to people that ALREADY have a huge amount of real money stored in BTC.

This method seems more fair for community, but in practice is complicated to be managed correctly, people will split BTC to many addresses ...


Of course some will, but I doubt some millionaire will take time and split his multimillion addresses to gain Byteballs.
At least this should be tried anyway (imo).
Also, I don't think it's such a difficulty, as there is a coupling going on in a database on a server, for what I see. So when Byteballs are issued, they could easily be capped to X per address.
